Mumbai, India | January 8, 2026: Mumbai Metro One (Versova–Andheri–Ghatkopar) has partnered with Sirona, one of India’s leading femtech brands, to install multi‑product menstrual hygiene vending machines outside women’s washrooms across key metro stations. This initiative aims to provide women commuters with convenient, dignified, and choice‑driven access to period products while on the move.
Building on Sirona’s successful deployments at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport (with DIAL‑GMR) and across M3M commercial complexes in Delhi‑NCR, this expansion marks a significant step in integrating menstrual hygiene into everyday public infrastructure. Unlike traditional dispensers with limited options, Sirona’s vending machines offer a curated range of products including menstrual cups, sanitary pads, tampons, panty liners, and period panties, empowering women to choose what best suits their needs.
Strategic Placement & Impact
- Machines installed just outside women’s washrooms for easy, discreet access.
- Supports both planned use and menstrual emergencies.
- Aligns with national efforts to normalize menstrual hygiene products in high‑footfall public spaces.
Deep Bajaj, Co‑Founder & CEO, Sirona Hygiene, said: “This is more than convenience—it’s culture change in motion. From airports and workplaces to now the Mumbai Metro, it’s encouraging to see infrastructure partners acknowledge women’s everyday needs. Periods are normal, and access to the right products should be non‑negotiable.”
Shyamantak Choudhury, CEO, Mumbai Metro One, added: “At Mumbai Metro One, customer comfort guides every decision. With women forming a significant share of our ridership, integrating their needs into the transit experience is essential. Sirona’s vending machines ensure easy, discreet access to preferred hygiene products and reinforce our commitment to world‑class metro infrastructure.”
